11. But have other candidates who are anti-war-esq winning?? The people of
CT may not have that much feeling that is anti-war. How do you know that the majority of CT voters are in favor of withdrawing the troops within the year? Perhaps he helped Bush out because he felt that many Dems were prowar and had to have their voices heard or that the Democrats need people who are prowar and not to lose people because they may look weak on defense. At any rate whoever gets elected the war will continue unless a significant amount of people come out and say they are against it. But it has been said by many newspapers and groups that not to vote for Joe because of your stance in the war is a bad idea. Lieberman brings people into the Democratic Party who would possibly ordinarily vote for a Republican. Lieberman makes the Democrats seem reasonable. Lieberman helps to bring significant business to the state, and has a strong influential presence on various committees.
Sure Bush kissed Lieberman, he also hugged the German woman leader, but both happened in a very public place, and I'm sure that there are many Democratic leaders who would also love to kiss Joe Lieberman. The kiss meant nothing except maybe that Bush is a little wierd.
A little more about Lamont's lack of experience. Lamont has a lack of experience and may have made a few mistakes early on making him to appear to be inconsistent. These early on mistakes can be caught. And were probably to partisan to be acceptable to the general CT population which will probably elect a Republican Governor and re-elect it's 3 republican representatives and 2 democratic representatives. No we're not all that Blue as you'd think.
